When Alexandra Jordan presented at this yearâs TechCrunch Disrupt Hackathon, the fourth grader from Sunnyvale, CA proved to be something of an audience favorite.
Jordan conceived of and coded her own hack, a playdate app called Super Fun Kid Time, which she is planning to launch in November. In honor of the International Day of the Girl â formally recognized by the United Nations on October 11th, 2012 â we asked Jordan to write a guest post on her experiences as a young coder.
